Well, I've read through all the answers and unless I missed that it has already been suggested, all you have to do to "PROVE" you have one or the other is, go out to the coach, pop off the hub "cap" (the large one that's normally just attached to the front wheels via friction and, with a flash light (if your existing daylight is not enough) simply look at your front hub covers. If it's an oil bath, about 99.999999% of them will have a clear, round outer housing with a rubber plug, about an inch or so in diameter in the center.
That clear housing will have marks on it tell you what level that you're to keep that oil level at a certain level. And, you'll be able to see the level in place now.
But, if you pop off the wheel cover and, you see a steel cap, with no visible means of seeing any form of lubricant, then they are grease type bearings. Let us know what you find out.
